One rechargeable battery is used for all
power requirements. However, six stan­
dard “C” cells will work without wiring
modification or adapters. Battery life on the
rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery,
based on a standard EIA duty cycle of 10%
transmit, 10% receive and 80% standby is
10 hours per charge on high band and 12
hours on UHF. On a 5% transmit, 5% re­
ceive and 90% standby duty cycle, battery
life is over 20 hours per charge on both
VHF and UHF models.
The 71/2 volt General Electric-built nickel­
cadmium battery has been specially de­
signed to accept either a fast or slow
charge. It is the only battery available with
built-in protection. Should a charger mal­
function, the battery is protected by a re­
placeable fuse that interrupts the charge.
